Glory, Irony, and a Crying Savior

I'm late to write this blog, but this time it feels like more of a good thing than usual because I have some things to share from the sermon tonight that I might not have shared this soon otherwise. We were in Mark 15:15-32. The crucifixion of Christ has some glorious...

In Court and On Trial

A few days ago someone was talking about how God is the judge in the courtroom of life, and we can try to put Him on trial as if we're the judge, but we can't do that because we're not the judge. Then I started thinking about what it looks like when people try to...

A Summary Look Back Before Going Forward

I've been in Deuteronomy in my daily Bible reading lately. Here Moses is giving the children of Israel a summary of what's happened to them since they left Egypt (Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers) before they head into the Promised Land. He's reminding them of the...

Waiting King

As I lay awake this morning before finally getting up, I made a connection between Aragorn (from The Lord of the Rings) and Jesus. Something Aragorn did in The Return of the King reminds me of something Jesus does. While for different reasons and under different...

Sometimes I like to read through notes I've written. I like to share, too. This time I've picked out some notes for encouraging you. God will never lose interest in you! God loves us with the highest degree of love possible. He always seeks your highest good. He will...

Memory Verses – Would Recommend to a Friend

Memorizing new Bible verses makes you repeat, rehearse, and go over the words multiple times. This makes you notice things that you might normally gloss over while simply reading. I'd say this is one of the reasons that it is good to hide God's Word in our hearts...

Civil Discourse

Civil discourse seems to be a dying art these days. It just means to have a non-violent, respectful discussion with someone about something on which you disagree. Maybe neither of you changes your mind by the end of it, but you had a polite discussion and you both...

Remote Christianity

I'm "stealing" the title from the two part sermon I heard yesterday. A particular piece of the topic stuck out to me. We have remotes for everything. They aren't just for TVs any more. With remotes we can turn on and off lights and appliances, we can close our garage...
